If all the people on the active rosters career ended today, who are the 10 that you think are automatic HOF locks? And why?


Active Roster to use to make the list:
http://www.wwe.com/superstars/smackdown
http://www.wwe.com/superstars/raw/


In no particular order for me:

  1. Taker - streak, 20 plus years of service, and title runs
  2. HHH - 13 world title reigns, DX, Evolution, and ushered in many matches
  3. Cena - the top star and draw of his era
  4. Kane - WWE/World/ECW/IC/Tag title reigns, ushering in MITB and the EC, and BOD
  5. Big Show - The only man to ever be WWE, WCW, and ECW champ in history
  6. Rey Mysterio - Brought over the lucha style, rumble, and 2nd Mexican WHC
  7. Edge - Is as decorated as they come when you look at his resume'
  8. Cole - Synonymous with SD which will be the 2nd longest show in history
  9. Mr.McMahon - Made pro wrestling into a main stream machine
  10. Toss up between Teddy Long and Booker T for me right now
EDIT - Thought about it and decided that Orton would actually make a legit 10th man being the youngest champ in history, the longest reigning IC champ for a while, being a tag champ, a rumble winner, and having multiple world title reigns.

1. HHH - 13 time champ, one of the best heels ever, etc.
2. Undertaker - The mania streak, one of the best big men of all time.
3. John Cena - Pretty much THE star of this current generation.
4. Vince - This really doesn't need to be explained.
5. Edge - Guy almost got as many reigns as HHH was part of one of the best tag teams ever and went to have a great solo run after.
6. Rey Mysterio - WWE's greatest lucha wrestler and biggest latin star.
7. CM Punk - Amount of accomplishments he has had in his short amount of time is very impressive and is something that a lot of wrestlers haven't even done in their career let alone in the span he did it.
8. Big Show - Having the WCW, ECW, WWE title in his career is something that can never really happen again and has never been done.
9. Booker - 5 time WCW champ and was apart of one of the best tag teams of all time in harlem heat.
10. Randy Orton - Pretty much has been one of the biggest stars next to Cena, youngest WWE champion ever, multi time world champion.

Did you also consider Kane?

Yeah was thinking about Christian but couldn't do it as much as I want to. And Kane I pretty much kept going back n fourth between him and Booker but Booker won due to his impact. Had his career kept on like it did when he first came with the gimmick and his 03 run he would have been a no brainer.

Forgot to ask, but would you object to Cole?

The guy has pretty much called more SD episodes than anyone and a number of Raw and ppv shows now as well. I might not like the rat bastard, but he in a way has definitely been the voice of the blue brand.


I thought about Teddy because of his history making stints as an African American manager, ref, and gm. I also found myself asking should Chioda (spelling) be recognized as well since he has basically been in the company forever and ref'd a number of matches.
